Rough

Things have been rough lately. My job is pretty demanding, especially since i'm the newbie. I end up doing my job and everyone elses side jobs. But I'm getting the hang of everything really quickly. I'm starting to get my groove working a section of eight booths. These past two weeks schedule-wise have been horrible, because i've been getting the crappy shifts. This means I work doubles, and seeing as FOUR people quit over the last week, there are a lot of open shifts. I've even been asked in to BARTEND! Which is interesting, because I have no bar experience up until now. But the majority of drinks bought are margaritas and those are premade, so only a couple of drinks I have to look up and figure out. But now that I know my way around in the bar, and I'm one of only a few people over the age of 21, I've become a workhorse to some people. I have to get their drinks for them, because they can't go behind the bar and we dont have a bartender during the lunch shift.

Last night was the worst.

Evey went to the vet yesterday. They said she had puppy hookworms. Pretty common, and gave me some pills to give her with dinner. All went well until Joe and I were just about to fall asleep. Evey made some interesting noises and I jumped up to discover she had vomited all over the carpet. The pills made her nauseated all night long. She figeted and wandered around all night and wouldn't sleep. Needless to say I finally got to sleep around 4 am. Then opened Peppers Grill this morning. I'm exhausted. Poor evey. No, Poorer Melody......

    Aww...work just sucks. Yeah, pretty much always, work sucks. It's ok though, just don't let work impact your real life more than it should, and keep looking for something better. You're a brilliant girl, you know how capable you are, you're worth more to the world than a simple server!
